Re: Keyboard Builder's Digest
I'm hosting a mechanical keyboard advent calendar over at kbd.news. I didn't want to pollute this site with all the daily posts, but today's article is A brief history of keyboard encoding by Daniel Beardsmore. I'm pretty sure many of you will appreciate this piece.

Re: IDENTIFY THE KEYSWITCH thread

Re: IDENTIFY THE KEYBOARD thread
There are so many things to love about this board, but the switches are definitely not among its strengths.
